Which branch makes the law?

Which branch makes the law?

• A. Executive
• B. Judicial
• C. Administrative
• D. Legislative

Answer: (D)

The body responsible for making laws is the legislative branch. It is designed to craft, debate, amend, and pass statutes that become laws when approved through the formal process (such as passage by both houses and signing by the executive, or by override of a veto). This branch represents the people and sets the legal framework that guides government and society. The other branches have different roles: the executive enforces laws, the judiciary interprets and applies them, and administrative agencies write regulations to implement statutes within the authority given to them. They work under the laws created by the legislature, rather than making the laws themselves.
